Samenvatting

This is a final report for the graduation project, Automating Performance Test Using LabVIEW, which is provided by company Bosch Rexroth in Eindhoven. The project is carried out as a thesis project of HZ University of Applied Sciences to examine if the thesis student reaches the HBO level. The goal of this graduation project is to build an initial software framework for the automatic test execution on Bosch’s industrial motion controller, NYCe4000. The framework is mainly built in LabVIEW, a graphical development environment.The design methodology, ‘System Development Methodology (SDM)’ will be introduced as the method to complete this project. All the outcomes of this assignment will be regarded as the results of every ‘SDM’ phases. By following the ‘SDM’ phases, a modular and extendible LabVIEW automatic test framework which meets all the company requirements is successfully completed and at the end of this report, some recommendations for the future development of this test software framework will be listed out.
